Throne of Blood (1957), Akira Kurosawa's reworking of Macbeth, is widely considered the greatest film adaptation of Shakespeare ever made. In a detailed account of the film, Robert N. Watson explores how Kurosawa draws key philosophical and psychological arguments from Shakespeare, translates them into striking visual metaphors, and inflects them through the history of post-World War II Japan. Watson places particular emphasis on the contexts that underlie the film's central tension between individual aspiration and the stability of broader social and ecological collectives - and therefore between free will and determinism. In his foreword to this new edition, Robert Watson considers the central characters' Washizu and his wife Asaji's blunder in viewing life as a ruthless competition in which only the most brutal can thrive in the context of an era of neoliberal economics, resurgent 'strongman' political leaders, and myopic views of the environmenal crisis, with nothing valued that cannot be monetized.

Sometimes, the right course of action is one we never expect to take. The city of Lancaster is now a city gripped in fear. A group of extreme activists is holding the city at ransom, intent on making their demands clear. Their wish is to end the monarchy and return all the wealth obtained by them to the people of the country. The Britain Without Monarchy group wants nothing more than to achieve an end to their own means. A tactical nuclear shell lies at their disposal, one of the biggest threats the country has ever seen. If their demands can't be met, they're quite willing to take the city down with them no matter the cost. More lives are soon lost as the extremists try to find a stable ground. Forced to confront the situation at hand, the government has no other option but to retaliate before things get further out of hand. The city's salvation lies in the hands of a group of cadets from the local grammar school. Though young, the cadets are determined in showing the country what they're worth. Teaming up with the Special Forces, the cadets soon embark on a journey that will test their mettle and open their eyes to the harsh world that now surrounds them. Their goal is to bring down the extremists without any further blood shed along the way. With orders from the highest level of government at their disposal, the cadets will do everything they can to ensure the city is liberated, once and for all.
